About Cacnb2

Summary

Enables actin filament binding activity and voltage-gated Calcium Channel activity involved in positive regulation of presynaptic cytosolic calcium levels. Acts upstream of or within chemical synaptic transmission and visual perception. Part of voltage-gated Calcium Channel complex. Is active in photoreceptor ribbon synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; genitourinary system; heart; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Brugada syndrome 4; hypertension; and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human CACNB2 (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit beta 2).
